You know that the two angles make up a perfectly flat line, which is a 180<span>° angle. So we can create the equation:'
3x + 10 = 12x
Now solve for 'x'. Subtract 3x to both sides:
10 = 9x
Divide 9 to both sides:
x = 10/9
We want to find the smaller angle, so put this value in for 'x' in '3x + 10':
3x + 10
3(10/9) + 10
30/9 + 10
13 1/3</span><span>°</span>
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -2.</u></h3>
5(2x + 8) = -8x + 4
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
10x + 40 = -8x + 4
<em><u>Add 8x to both sides.</u></em>
18x + 40 = 4
<em><u>Subtract 40 from both sides.</u></em>
18x = -36
<em><u>Divide both sides by 18</u></em>
x = -2
Answers:
1. The n-intercept is 12. That means after 12 visits the amount of money on the gift car is $0.
2. The A(n)-intercept is 150. Before the visits, the amount of money on the gift car is $150.
Solution:
Amount of money on the gift card after n number of visits: A(n)=$150-$12.50 n
A(n)=150-12.50 n
1. n-intercept
A(n)=0→150-12.50 n =0
Solving for n: Subtracting 150 both sides of the equation:
150-12.50 n-150 = 0-150
-12.50 n = -150
Dividing both sides of the equation by -12.50:
(-12.50 n) / (-12.50) = (-150) / (-12.50)
n=12
The n-intercept is n=12; for n=12→A(12)=0. Point (n, A(n))=(12,0)
2. A(n) intercept
n=0→A(0)=150-12.50 (0)
A(0)=150-0
A(0)=150
The A(n) intercept is 150; for n=0→A(0)=150. Point (n, A(n))=(0,150)
There are 9 possible combinations, because you can have 3 main dishes, and each of thise have 3 side dishes that can go with them. I hope this helps! Could I possibly get brainliest.
